Uncommon card · No. 134326

Plebs is a British sitcom broadcast on ITV2. It was first broadcast in March 2013, and was produced by Tom Basden, Caroline Leddy, Sam Leifer and Teddy Leifer. It stars Tom Rosenthal, Ryan Sampson, Joel Fry (series 1–3), and Jonathan Pointing (from series 4), who play young residents of ancient Rome (plebs were ordinary non-patrician citizens of Rome). The show ran for five series between 2013 and 2019, with a feature-length special in 2022. The show makes comical use of anachronistically modern parlance and concepts in a historical setting. It predominantly uses ska/rocksteady music, during all the opening and closing titles, and during each episode as background music.
